Per Telski: No flying from resort until we have insurance coverage of 5M (ushpa provides 2M). Working on getting more info then will call club meeting.

The winds not lookin as good today. I turned around.

Mickey 09.12.2020 10:22

Last day of high press conditions before we get some winter weather again. I just landed, still 4/5mph ESE. Enjoy

KS 08.12.2020 18:01

Heading out to Pony Draw tomorrow. Still remember when Captain Jack took Chuck Yeager Tandem here.

KS 08.12.2020 10:43

60 degrees in December winds blowing in perfect for two hours bald eagle flying around. Ah Pony Draw. Wish I had a flying buddy. Too scared to go it alone. Took my frustration out on the launch. It’s looking good. Did I mention it’s unregulated. No rules

KS 06.12.2020 07:28

Heading out to Pony Draw to check it out Sunday.

KS 05.12.2020 09:54

Haven’t been out there all summer, might need a little work. Today looks like a good wind forecast. Might try tomorrow. I’ll let you know.

Mickey 04.12.2020 07:58

Tks for the update Kev. Pony is looking great, conditions have been perfect to fly recently here. Post here before going, maybe I ll fly over n meet u there.

KS 03.12.2020 17:36

So talk to the Ski Patrol about flying. Scott Pritchett said not until the lifts are open. Heading out to Pony Draw to see what’s going on.

KS 03.12.2020 09:37

We keep talking about a meeting. If nothing happens soon I will pay my dues at last years rate of $150. Looks like some nice flying weather coming this week. Hoping to check in with the Patrol tomorrow.

Mickey 25.11.2020 10:09

Did we find the O2 tanks? Checked the dodge, not here.

Kdub 14.11.2020 18:03

I can check on the 02 bottles tonight.

Kdub 14.11.2020 18:01

Hi, thanks KS, DO and LO for moving the truck and MR for storage! I’ll be in touch on email about a meeting!

KS 13.11.2020 09:14

I think they got stored in the tubes again like last year but I haven’t looked to see for sure. The truck is in Norwood.

JC 12.11.2020 18:59

Forgot to look in back of Dodge today… did anyone pick up the oxygen tanks yet?

Mickey 11.11.2020 15:40

Always so much enthusiasm when it comes to meetings! 😆

KS 07.11.2020 19:14

On that note maybe we can have a meeting to talk about Winter flying.

Mickey 07.11.2020 17:17
